I Thought She Was Going To Kill Me!

 I got a letter from a real estate agent the other day and I couldn’t believe how upset she was. I thought she was going to kill me! Our company has worked with her for over seven years and I thought we were the best of friends. So, we got back in touch with her to find out what happened.

    It all started when she had asked for us to do a termite inspection on her mother’s house. We found both drywood and subterranean termites in her home and sent her an inspection report and estimate with all the specifications in writing. In the past, she has always trusted our opinion. But, in this case, one of her family members talked her into getting second and third opinions from other companies.

    Inspectors from two other companies did inspections of her home and all they could find were drywood termites. What is really funny is that she even showed them a copy of our report. It clearly told them where the subterranean termites were located, but they still couldn’t find them. These two guys stood their ground and told her that we were wrong. The agent thought we were trying to take advantage of her mother.

    We went back over to her mom’s house the next day so we could meet with the agent. Using our report, we simply looked where the report said there were subterranean termites. The termites were clearly visible for her to see! I don’t know why the other guys couldn’t see them. Do they even know what subterranean termites look like??

    Ladies and gentlemen, this happens all the time and you’re going to have to be careful when you get other opinions. If you really want other opinions, that’s alright. All I ask is that you give us a chance to show you what we found before you make a choice. On top of that, the other guys didn’t even measure her home right for the fumigation! There is no other way to put it; If she had trusted the other two guys, she would have gotten ripped off!
